I too have run into this issue, and addressed it in a different way. My init.el contains only a defun and an add-hook. The defun is simple. It adds a few miscellaneous directories to load-path and then makes the call to Eric's starter kit via org-babel-load-file(). The trick is this: I add the defun to the hook "after-init-hook". This ensures that my personal initialization, including the Starter Kit .org files, doesn't begin to execute until all the ELPA packages are initialized. That way my own initialization can depend on a fully stabilized Emacs. (add-hook 'after-init-hook 'my-after-init-hook-functions) I found this useful because my personal initialization makes little tweaks to my ELPA packages. It seems to give me the control over the order of initialization that I need. Regards to all, Tom Davey -- Tom Davey tom@tomdavey.com New York NY USA
